Abstract :
There are different propagation models designed to be used in cellular network planning. Some of them is supposed to take into account the presence of vegetation. However, the measurement of radio coverage within our cities shows large differences between vegetation and arid areas. This paper presents an evolution of previous models to incorporate the effect of vegetation in the cellular planning, incorporating the knowledge acquired by the measured results.
